Commercial Description:
Everything great that was ever built required a long hammer. A trusty tool used by ordinary ordinary men to make extraordinary things. Transcontinental train tracks. Impossible pipelines. Soaring skyscraper. Long Hammer IPA puts this bold spirit in a bottle. And like its namesake, it's a beer built to stand the test of time.

Piney hop aroma. Apperance is yellow/brown. Flavor is hoppy, spicy. Slight hop burn on the palate. Decent beer.

Bottle; pours a yellowish brown. Aroma is a little fainter than a typical IPA, but consists of the usual floral hop scent and maybe a little yeast and malt. Body has a fairly solid smooth mouthfeel, albiet a little light on the hop flavor. Slight dry, citrus bite at the end with not a whole lot of aftertaste. An easy to drink IPA.

Hazy yellow with thin white head, diminishing quickly. Light floral hop nose with some sweet malts mixed in. Pretty water with a long bad bitter finish. I generally like IPAs but this one is not a very good example of the style. A light citrus hop flavor comes through but for the most part it’s just bitter, and watery on top of it. No thanks, next.

Draft @ the Wach: Let’s Go Flyers!! Pours a clear amber w/ a small off-white head. Aroma is piney hops, all hops. Flavor is very hoppy w/ a hint of caramel malt, but mostly hops. Palate is pretty average & the beer pretty one dimensional. Not bad, not great. Let’s see, this or Bud Light? Hmmm...

Purchased 12 pack. This is quite good. I was pleasantly surprised. It’s got a nice crisp hoppy bite to it but not overpowering so perhaps it could use a touch more flavor. Very smooth. A nice entry level IPA. The gentle sweet bitter hoppiness makes it extremely easy to drink. A good summer selection.

Draft. Bready nose with slight hop notes. Mostly malt, mild bitterness, drinkable but by no means an IPA.

Clear light amber color. Mild perfumy, piney hop smell. Medium body and smooth. A decent flavor meshes caramel malt sweetness with a mildly bitter hop finish. Easy drinking. Better than Redhooks reputation.10157

Draught at Zodo’s. Hazy yellow with a big white head. Indistinct hops in the aroma. Pretty clean malts, lightly hopped for a west coast IPA, but still enough to let you know what it is. There’s a slight soapiness that keeps it from being better, but overall its pretty drinkable.
